Objectives : The Purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical application of conservative treatment including hip joint MST for lumbar HIVD(Herniated Intervertebral Disc) and early developed avascular necrosis of femur head. Methods : Patient is hospitalized at Dept. of Oriental Internal Medicine, Jaseng Oriental Medicine Hospital, diagnosed as lumbar HIVD(Herniated Intervertebral Disc) and early developed Avascular Necrosis of Femur Head and treated by herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion and hip joint MST. This study was measured by NRS(Numeric Rating Scale), ODI(Oswestry Disability Index) and ROM(range of motion). Results : After conservative treatment, the patient's pain was controlled and NRS score was decreased. ODI and ROM also were improved. Conclusions : As seen in this one case, Oriental conservative treatment including hip joint MST has a positive effect to control pain with lumbar HIVD(Herniated Intervertebral Disc) and early developed avascular necrosis of femur head.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to report the improvements in pain that a woman experienced after receiving Korean medicine treatments for the pain associated with core decompression surgery due to avascular necrosis (AVN) of both femur heads. Methods : The patient was diagnosed as having AVN in both femur heads and underwent core decompression surgery. After operation, she had pain on her right inguinal region and her range of motion (ROM) was restricted. She was treated with Korean medicine including, herbal medicine, acupuncture, Chuna Manual Therapy and bee venom acupuncture (BV). This study was measured by using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the ROM scale. Results : After conservative treatment, the patient's pain was reduced and ROM was increased. Daily living quality had improved. Conclusions : In this case, Korean conservative medicine therapy with Chuna Manual Therapy had a positive effect on the symptoms after core decompression surgery due to avascular necrosis of the femur head.

본 통증치료실에서 요통 및 하지 방사통을 호소하는 30세된 남자환자를 보통 시행하는 횟수 보다 많은 경막외강내 스테로이드 주입중에 발생한 양측 무혈성 골두괴사를 경험하였다. 물론 이 환자는 약국이나 한약방 등에서 약명미상의 약물을 경구투여받고 있었으므로 그것(혹시 스테로이드)으로 인한 원인인지 혹은 단순히 경막외강으로 주입된 스테로이드로 인한것인지는 분명하지 않다. 그러나 최근 피부과 질환으로 인한 스테로이드의 장기복용 및 도포로 무혈성 대퇴골두괴사가 종종 보고되고 있으므로 그 원인일수도 있다는 가정하에 통증치료실에 근무하는 종사자들의 주의를 요하는 뜻에서 이 증례를 보고하는 바이다.

무혈성 골괴사는 골조직 및 골수 조직의 허혈성 상태로 인한 괴사로 정의될 수 있으며, 외상성 및 비외상성으로 구분할 수 있다. 무혈성 골괴사는 대퇴골 골두, 상완골 골두와 같이 장골의 골단 부위에서 주로 발생한다. 기존의 무혈성 골괴사는 대부분 대퇴골 골두에 한정된 증례에 대한 보고 및 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 근위 대퇴골의 무혈성 괴사의 존재는 인공 고관절 전치환술 이후 생물학적 고정 실패의 원인이 된다. 본 저자들은 대퇴골 골두로부터 대퇴골 경부, 간단부 간부 및 원위부에 이르는 골수강내 부위의 대퇴골 전 영역의 무혈성 골괴사가 관찰된 56세 남자 환자에서 인공 고관절 전치환술을 시행하고 2년 추시 결과를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.

Avascular necrosis of bone has become a well-recognized complication of renal transplantation. While preexisting metabolic bone disease, especially hyperparathyroidism, and metabolic disturbances induced by steroids have been implicated as etiological factors, the pathogenesis is controversial. The diagnosis of avascular necrosis of bone had been based on a history of joint pain and radiographic demonstration of bone necrosis. Recently the bone scan using 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate is helpful in determining the early stage of bone necrosis. We report two cases of avascular necrosis of femur head, of which diagnosis was made by the bone scan using 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate.

To determine the effect of Korean medicine treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) this study reviewed both single ingredients and bioactive compounds in the treatment of ANFH in a rat model. Literature was retrieved from PubMed and Google Scholar using the keywords "femur head necrosis," "natural extract," and "rat." The data from studies analyzed included: rats' characteristics, development methods of ANFH, natural extracts administration, observation methods, and outcome indicators. Two independent researchers screened all articles retrieved and 26 studies were chosen. The most used rat species was the Sprague Dawley rat (76.9%). To induce ANFH, steroid injections (46.2%), and oral gavage (53.8%) were typically used. Studies focused mainly on factors affecting bone formation (65.3%), and apoptosis (53.8%). Research on ANFH focused on using traditional natural substances mentioned in classical literature to confirm its effectiveness against anti-inflammation, osteogenesis, and cell death. ANFH has a diverse etiology, therefore research models such as genetic analysis of human-derived samples from ANFH patients may shed more light on the condition. Moreover, research into herbal medicines and pharmacoacupuncture treatment of ANFH should precede.

Objectives This paper is an analysis of domestic and foreign trends for the Korean medical treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Methods Domestic and foreign databases were searched and analyzed for Korean medical treatment interventions, research types, and treatment effects for avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Results There were 10 case reports in Korea, 2 case reports and 3 randomized controlled studies abroad. A total of 12 treatment interventions were used, and the types include acupuncture, herbal medicine, phamacopunture, electroacupuncture, cupping, physical therapy, chuna, acupotomy, moxibustion, warm acupuncture, laser acupuncture, and motion style treatment. As for the evaluation index, visual analogue scale, range of motion and harris hip score were the most common with 7 cases each. Conclusions Through this study, it was possible to understand the trends of domestic and foreign research on the treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head with Korean medicine. However, due to the small number of literature and no randomized control studies in Korea, treatment evidence is insufficient. It is considered that further research is needed in the future.
